As far as I'm concerned, the use of the N word is related to racism (in some typical cases). And in a topic related to racism, the N word would most likely come up at some point.

That's pretty appalling behaviour. Ban deserved tbh. It's never OK to be a racist moron.

Because 95% of the population* are retards, incapable from separating their tiny tribal mindset from reason.
* figure plucked from the air, may not be accurate

NEWSFLASH: using the N word means you are racist.
Newsflash: Typing it, in the comments section of a newspaper site, from a work computer, means you are not the brightest of bulbs, regardless of context.

Yes.
Yes.
Still yes.
Yes.
Yes.
OP - getting banned from the DM - that's very good going. That certainly bolsters your anarchist credentials!

True. But not necessarily a racist.
I bet you're fun on nights out.
Opinion holders are terrible people and should be banned from expressing them.
I hold opinions on many things that haven't been categorically proved. Guess I am a very bad person.

Not in isolation but they've obviously read the rest of Groen's posts and made an informed decision based on the evidence presented

Opinions are like bum holes - everyone's got one.
lol
How does anyone know AIDM was banned for being a racist? Unless the ministry of truth has been at the records again, the word '******' is entirely subjective to the contect in which it is used. Using the word to discuss in context the op here is not racist. Calling a black fella a *** or a ****** is racist.
Acknowledging the word itself is not a declaration of racism, despite what the effete hand-wringers of political correctness would have you believe.
I always laugh at Radio 4 when they 'warn listeners' incase of causing offense when the word ****** is used in a program discussing the history of race and its evolution - it's never black people who are offended by its use on the programs, but middle class white people getting upset on the behalf of 'those poor black people' which is condescending and slightly insulting at the same time.
Anyone with half a braincell knows everyone is basically the same underneath; neutering language so we cannot work out some of our social problems hinders this idea.
I see from the profusion of syellow stars, that ocuk is a branch of the aforementioned ministry hehe, though it's probably more because users of the forum cannot be decent to eachother.

DM wouldn't have much of a following if they actually banned the racists

Even in this thread its mention has created a heated response.
You just proved my point of using an alternative word. In this case, not a letter was needed, just *.
So tell me where the use of the word would be preferential to saying the N-Word or ******?
sigh.
I am using '******' to save myself from a potential ban that comes from automatic screens most forums have.
The actual argument is using the word, or any replacement word, instantly makes you a racist. Which is wrong.
What you are arguing is that it is acceptable to use 'n-word'.
So if I went to a black person (literally) - 'You are a n-word' does that mean I am not a racist? Of course it doesn't.
We are not debating over what words are being used. We are debating the context.

I think you either need to be banned or have your name changed to something Daily Mail related
Daily Mail Mod...
Maybe he posted a well reasoned, plausible and verifiable comment!
Anyone see that Charlie Brooker newswipe. Can't remember the context but it was about some furore where someone said the n word. All the reporting was n***** this and n***** that.
He commented that everytime he saw the starred out version he said the word in his head thereby making him a racist, cheers for that.
So thanks for making me a racist OP

Unless it's an unmoderated comment feed, they never allow any of my comments to be posted.
